    Easy to connect, but didn’t improve my WiFi signal or range. Possibly, if not probably due to limited locations to position router on main floor and extender in basement. Worth a try, just didn’t work for me.

    The ease of installation and function of this extender is everything it advertised. I pushed the WPS on the modem and the Extender. It synced easily, and then I moved the extender to where it was needed, and the electronics I needed it for hooked up immediately.

    So, I went to the Potomac Yard (Alexandria VA) to return it and it was past the 15 days timeline. I was told that they couldn´t receive it. So I threw it in the garbage. There should be a standard 30 days (at least) return period in Best Buy. Then I boiugth this TP-Link, and it´s the opposite of the previous (Netgear). Easy to set up, and way much friendly and powerful. I should have bought this since the beginning.

    At first, I had a little issue trying to set it up. Until I realized that I was doing something wrong. Once I got it up and running, it has had ZERO connectivity issues and translates my internet plan speed at full(as if it was my main router). Excellent for gaming, working!!!

    We needed this because our cable companies rotor box was not reaching our back porch area. We plug it into our kitchen beside our porch and it works well.

    This extender has out performed my prior unit, from a different vendor. I am using it to extend my WiFi into and through the garage for connectivity for smart lights outside and use in the garage. Not connection issues or speed.

    The Wi-Fi works well upstairs in our house. Unfortunately, it works best in the area or room the device is in.

    I'm writing this review after using this product for 11 months. This is an awesome wifi extender that has worked without any issues. I setup an ethernet cable to the other side of my house and use this ethernet connection to extend wifi. Wifi never disconnects and never has low range around my house. I even get signal a half block away from my house.

    Setup was simple with Tether App. It is not a grounded device and the weight can/will pull it out of the outlet. A small piece of velcro (half on the unit half on the outlet should keep it in place. Not a fan that there's no ground pin, but it works reasonably well, providing seamless WiFi throughout my basement that had lots of dead spots.
